Meet The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 4x4 That's as Capable as a Wrangler | It Has 3 Locking Diffs! 

I want one to commute to work and take a nap in at lunch lol

Dan is the man! That van is beast... especially in person!

Take a shot everytime Roman says yep.

Do you have video for the other van bunions you? Interested in the sprinter pop up. Look like that van is a high roof. Wander how the pop up works. Thanks a lot.

I just looked at the IGLhaut USA website and I'm shocked at how little there is to see. also, the gallery is tiny and the photos low definition... nothing, it would seem, about the adventure kit?

Nice exterior fitout. Uninspiring interior; need to upgrade for that price tag.

That thing is badass.

Woah, I Dit not know, that Igelhaut works also for the US-Market! Cool, the quality from the Germans is the best you can get! greatings from switzerland 😀👍

37s? Whoa! Cool van, but personally, I think the regular 4x4 would serve me just fine. I'd rather put the budget towards interior amenities. However, if your budget is big enough, now you really can have it all.

Thats a cool van

Take a look at Oberainger they convert Sprinters to 4x4. They are also authorised by MB and their conversion doesn't invalidate your warranty. I enquired about converting my LWB 4.5tonne Renault Master and I was quoted 14,000 Euro which came out around £12,000 sadly I haven't had this done yet!

That price is insane!

The roof of my mid-height Transit van with 32" tires and no roof rack gets beat up enough trying to navigate some back roads - this thing is a foot taller... I bought the Ford cuz there are many dealerships - Merc not so much - Merc with aftermarket parts - Good luck!

Review the AEV Ram with the four wheel camper

You can get an equally capable ford sportsmobile done in the US for half the price and delivery time.

NIce and all, but $135,000, 37", 3 locking diffs....NO off road shots!?!?!?!?

As capable as a wrangler and as expensive as 2 decked out rubicons

it’s very cool. But the price is way too high! You can get a pair of dynatrac 60 axles under a Ford van. Even with a diesel Cummings conversion. it would still be cheaper and more capable.

I would prefer Iveco Daily 4x4 that comes in stock from a factory with 3 dif locks, skidplates, huge wheels, truck bed and costs in Europe from 63k Euro

Do they only convert new vans? The website isn’t clear on that one.

Would love a Metris built like this

Sweet van, would love to have this as an overlanding rig, these Sprinters are probably the most reliable vehicle Mercedes makes.

10 seconds into the video, I knew I would see comments in shock at the price. Didn't even have to hear the price to know that.

Are the diff lock buttons mounted crooked?

disappointed that we havn't been shown the conversion of this van into a regular RV though.

Why is it when a guest appears on videos, in general, and they give out their web sites in an unclear manner, the host of said video does not list it in the "description below" area. FFT

Who makes the front brush guard?

I guess I would have to back to work at Miki Dees to save up to get one. I guess there are a lot of rich people out there. I wonder if they would convert my 2000 Mercedes SLK 230.

Thanks for taking this van to the masses! Would love to see it in person

I DIG IT! Nice NIKE blouse BTW. New sponsor? Haha

Nice

I’ve seen a Sprinter in Iceland that makes these look like little toys. It was probably an Arctic Trucks treatment.

Why not actually test one offroad (on the Rubicon Trail or whatever)?

Needs portal axles

Specs on wheels and tires please

Super cool machine but can't imagine that people would be willing to fork over so much money to have a simple 4X4 capable van.

HO-LY COW! That thing is amazing! Oh, to have a spare $135,000 laying around. Well, I can dream, at least. What an awesome mobile man-cave!

how much for transfer case lock? Where can buy it?

I just wish that 4WD was offered in the Ram ProMaster City or the Ford Transit Connect. I would love a compact, 4WD van that I could outfit to be a one person camping/overlanding rig for a modest budget. Of course, Toyota could also take a hint and build the FT-4X with foldable seats. Either works.

Question guys.. is a Tundra comparably equipped as capable as a Tacoma?

As capable as a wrangler is just not true. I have some beach front property in hell too, that's how true that statement is.

Dream Car

That's an awful lot of money and time, and you still have an empty van!

You heard what he said. He would prefer to have a mattress in the back with the 4x4. So just buy a ford ranger or any other 4x4 and get a baroud RTT on it and save yourself 100 K!!

I would love a rig like this. without alot of the outside bling.

......shame they didn't start it up........to see the 'fire-eating dragon' effect.......:(

The metris would be the interesting thing. Smaller, less expensive

A Sportsmobile with a UJoint off road conversion on a ford Econoline chassis is more useable then that unstable at ground level or rollover hazard at lifted 37" tires for $135,000. Sportsmobile has taken their vans to Moab and Baja as well as Death Valley As.

How do you great guys (IGHAUT) do that really short body. I like it. Very 911 eske. How do you spell that last word? Danke

Nice rig. That Patagonia down/faux down jacket aint water proof, get some Gore-Tex, your life will be happier above 6500+ ft.

Not as capable as a Wrangler, but I'm guessing you only said that to get more people to watch.

down by the river

"As capable as a wrangler" That's like saying the top heavy Kool-Aid man is as agile as an NFL player.

that price is stupid think i will keep my 89 Dodge B150 pathfinder that i paid $166 bucks for LOL [ got the deal done at 2AM 34 bucks was all the change the guy had he wants 150 and all i had was C-notes ]

Ok, thats cool. BUT! It would be cooler if it had portal hubs. If money was no object of course.

Not going to see that on the Rubicon or even a minor 4x4 trail ever.

auto cuby creates custom sprinters for passenger transport and they have done away with the sliding door and added a pneumatic-powered door on the side of the passenger seat, as seen on coaches. one massive advantage is that the space normally taken by the sliding door is RECLAIMED!!! that means you can get yourself a nice galley there :). See an auto cuby customised sprinter here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gQVAL39ymKI.html, along with the coach-style pneumatic door on the passenger seat side (towards end of video). I'll pass on the jumbo wheels though.

From what is on display here, you would do better to get a Winnebago Revel. And the Revel would be cheaper.

Mmm... I think I'd rather have a Ford Transit.

Just get a square body suburban n rebuild it n beef it up, way cheaper n parts gonna be whole lot easier to find, and heck can actually work in it yourself. If anyone does that anymore.....

For that money I will buy a Brand New Power Wagon and put a Hallmark camper on it.

So 130 grand or.. 35 for a basic pickup then 37 for a camper for the back and your at 72 grand. Kind of hard to justify the price when you could have a truck and camper rolling down the road and that's before you outfit the van.

Sooo dream sprinter buy a Winnebago Revel and send it to Iglhaut for a conversion...I’ll get back to you when I win the lottery. 👍

$140k? same cost as a gently used Unimog- but this aint no unimog ?

💯💪🏾

But, but what about the Lexani?

These people speaks about money as it means nothing? Wonder who would spend $135.000 to sleep in his “adventure kit”? Insanity!

Quality control and experience? What you think we can't do that here in good ole MERICA? we put a man on the moon.

Wow all this for only $200000!!! What a bargain 😳. One more reason I think another crash is coming.

He mentions acceleration and on road capability but he doesn't say anything about fuel consumption

What’s a metros?

You see the frame rusting already 0:33

Send it to SPORTSMOBILE in Fresno, Ca. And get a better 4 wheel drive transfer case for less than what it’ll cost you to ship it to GERMANY. For $140,000.00 you’d get a decked out sports mobile with an ATLAS II transfer case that will definitely outperform that basic transfer case he’s trying to sell you. He’s so full of shit by saying he’d rather have a mattress and go without the extra comfort features. He’s selling snake oil. As you can see, there was no actual driving involved to see which vehicle could outperform the other. And he tries to confuse you by saying it’s a 3 way locker. It’s only an electronic locker, you’d hope. It could be an air locker which is less reliable.

HOW MUCH!!!!!!!

They could at least put the buttons in a straight line...

Love those Hella fog lamps. MB Sprinter is garbage. My work vehicle is.one. Those vans are.trash.

MÁQUINA BOA DIMAIS TENHO 5 SÃO MUITO BOM MELHOR 4*4 DIMAS E O BICHO BAHIA BRASIL CACULÉ

"it looks very good offroad, have you taken it offroad" .... .VERY LONG PAUSE, bs answer... aka NOPE never been offroad but let me tell you it is very good offroad. and for $200k you to can have one in 3-5 years after you buy the stock van.

Oh wowww 3 differentials what a gimmick. Never had a moment where I needed more than 2 on a 4x4

Es solo chachara.no muestran nada de las especificaciones tecnicas.y no lo dicen en español

The stock Mercedes Sprinter 4x4 system is terrible!!! I owed one from 2016 tell October of this year and finally had enough. It was almost useless. Half the time you would swear it wasn't working, getting it to engage was a pain in the ass. Im looking forward to my 2020 Transit AWD. Also in the video he asks if the Van is the tall roof or regular. They guy says its regular but its clearly the tall roof

So when did the police show up and tow them all off since they are parked in handicap and fire zones?

As capable as a Wrangler?.....ya no...

“As capable as a Wrangler”

As capable as a Wrangler. Uh huh.

Way to expensive and this guy is selling these and doesn’t have his specs on hand! Just shouts amateur and overpriced! Sorry just my opinion.

6 months and you have to pay to ship it to Germany, would make more sense just to buy one already in Germany, and not pay this 3rd party guy for work he is not even doing.

Alle schreiben hier, für das Geld kaufe ich mir das und das und das.....ja dann macht es doch! Qualität kostet.

Too showy. Get 4 wranglers with smithy roof camps for same price.

Toooo expnsv!!!!

Is wrangler just a joke nowdays??

How you gonna deal with DEF, because this thing is creating problems in every diesel engine. Owning diesel is like a pain. Answer please.

Quigleys still King. These guys cost 4 times more. And Quigley is already super pricey.

Rustbucket with incredibly expensive spares ...

That interior looks cheap for a $135k camper van. That's a big nope for me. Plus, the maintenance cost of a Mercedes Sprinter is outrageous. I see rollovers in this van's future with 37" tires + lift.

Now the other clowns at it. Centrifickle? Wtf, read the words you struggle with slowly and pronounce each syllable, then speed it up til you say the word correctly. Like when you were 4.

Why would you compare it to a Wrangler as a positive? A Wrangler is a piece of shit?

Still no ground clearance. And Sprinter is still junk.

FFS if you are presenting st., try to pronounciate it correctly, its Iglhaut, not INglhaut, the name is in front of you in such a big letters, isn't it Second thing is, the bloke that represents Iglhaut has such a face, I wouldn't buy a cookie for charity from him, he somehow manage to stink even over the screen Third thing is, Iglhauts are not as capable, nor durable, as they used to be putting Bremer/T1N (that should the bloke knows) on G-wagen drivetrain Not loosing warranty, but have a car nearly a year (with shipment) in Germany for rebuilt is defo not worth it Oh yes, and the price is ridiculous, not adequate to what it can do and how poorly it last under hardcore conditions

Rust will eat sprinter after few years
